The Pelham Soccer Club will be piloting a new soccer program for children with special needs. Our hope is to have enough players to make two teams with athletes ages 4 – 8 years on one team and athletes ages 9 – 14 years on another team. Players with intellectual or developmental disabilities can choose to play on the regular soccer team with their age appropriate peers or on our new team made up of players with special needs.

The special needs soccer program will promote basic soccer skills, safe team play, good sportsmanship and self-esteem building. Along with the coach, this team will have the added assistance of peer coaches. The peer coaches will provide the players one-to-one attention, assist them in learning the basic game of soccer, and promote teamwork and having fun! This program will run concurrent with all other Pelham Soccer program.  FOr More information click on the logo.  http://www.osoinc.com/
